Chapter 21: Entering Yu (Final)
Yang Kai was only followed by one of his subordinates who led the way, and everyone turned around when they heard the sound, but they saw that Wei Qianfu's people subconsciously made way for him.
Seven in and seven out of three thousand Guanning iron cavalry, among the thousand cavalry to win the head of the enemy general, such an astonishing record, has made the name of the little pioneer spread to every corner of this new camp.
The soldiers at the bottom, although each of them has a leader, and there is a leader on the leader, but from the bottom of their hearts, they are still in awe of those who can fight and dare to fight.
So Yang Kai was able to go straight to Wei Qianfu and talk to him:
"Wei Guan team, just you people, I'm afraid it's not enough for our brothers to kill, you don't want to hang up with your other hand, right?"
"A few of your mother's milky stinky children dare to be in front of your grandfather?"
Zhao Hu made a move in front of him, Wei Qianfu had already restrained his anger, and now Yang Kai's words were full of threats, no matter how he said it, he was also an old manager, where could he still bear it, and suddenly he was going to fan it with a big mouth.
Yang Kai seemed to have expected it, before his palm fell, he suddenly stretched out his left hand, his five fingers were like steel tongs clasping Wei Qianfu's throat, and he pressed it against the wall next to the door, and scolded fiercely:
"In front of the plate, Lao Tzu is giving you face, not your words. You use this face to kick Lao Tzu in the face, right? Lao Tzu's people and soldiers can be killed, and Tartars can be killed, what are you? ”
"The ...... in charge" The brothers around Wei Qianfu outside the door were stunned for a moment, and they all wanted to surround them.
Yang Kai turned his head sideways and glared angrily, looked at the people outside the door and said, "It's none of your business here, really do it, are you people enough for us to kill?" ”
Everyone was deterred when they heard this, they looked at each other, Wei Qianfu was held by the throat, his face was distorted, and the only remaining hand wanted to break Yang Kai's hand, but he couldn't, and he wanted to grab Yang Kai's throat.
Seeing this, Yang Kai let go and took a step back, Wei Qianfu was busy hunching his waist and coughing and panting, unable to say half a word. Yan Hou and the others behind Zhao Hu were all boiling with blood, and their hearts were pounding.
"Hug the girl you chose, and go back to sleep with Lao Tzu." Yang Kai shouted, and when he led the way out of the door first, his heart was also pounding, he couldn't tell whether it was hot blood or nervousness.
Maybe neither, but he knew that these brothers were the only ones he could rely on in this world.
Back in the courtyard, Yang Kai first ordered his cronies to hang the recruiting banner in front of the courtyard, summoned all the ten commanders of each department in the evening, including the above officers, and also named Chen Yuzhu and asked him to come to the courtyard to attend the meeting.
……
A whole day's sleep made Yang Kai full of energy, and when he woke up, although his body was full of pain and pain, fortunately, he still had strength. He got up, walked out of the yard gently, and moved carefully, the wound on his back was not very thorough until now, and the involvement of the front and back times increased the difficulty of healing the wound.
Suddenly, he heard a noise in the room to the east, and walked a few steps through the window to see a woman tied inside. She was speechless with a strap tied to her mouth, and her hands and feet were heavily bound with rope, and the other end of the rope was tied to the foot of the bed in the room.
She kept twisting her hands and feet, probably trying to break free, but when she saw Yang Kai, she stopped her movements and looked at him motionlessly, there was no cruel resentment in that gaze, only fear.
"What's going on?" Yang Kai shouted loudly to the soldiers outside the door.
The soldiers outside the door walked in a few steps and reported: "The palm sent it, saying that this is still an innocent girl, and it is a reward for the master, if it is not enough, he can send a few over." ”
Yang Kai understood what Gao Yingen meant, the leaders of the battalions in the peasant army would distribute the stolen women to their subordinates to appease people's hearts, which was a common rule in each battalion.
"Close the window, get her some food, and I'll be lucky when the meeting is over." Yang Kai thought for a while, avoided the woman's gaze, and looked at the soldiers in front of him.
The soldiers stepped forward to close the windows. Then he said: "The young master doesn't know, in the morning, Fourth Brother Han brought the wives and concubines of those rich families, a large group of Yingying Yanyan, and he picked a few old ones, and the rest were invited to the brothers to enjoy, and the game was not over until noon, but the news had already been notified to their ears, and they all promised to come, and they couldn't delay the time." ”
Yang Kai walked out silently, hearing these words, his heart was no longer as turbulent as before, he sighed secretly, his heart was getting harder and harder. But who is to blame for this? The world is like this, who is not a pawn at the mercy of fate? In doing so, they will also be spared from being full of warmth and lust and robbing the women.
In the ranks of the rebels, there is no need for a saint, what is needed is a leader who is feared in action and strength.
Yang Taisui had only been dead for two days, and Yang Kai had no intention of doing so, but all the troops were in high spirits, and they all acted according to the rules that Yang Taisui had set before, so he naturally couldn't spoil the interest of his brothers.
Yang Kai nodded, and then said to his subordinates: "You all go, do you have any silver on you?" ”
"Yes, yes." The soldiers were stunned for a moment, unable to hide their excitement, and immediately bowed to Yang Kai, turned around and ran.
Yang Kai took a pot of tea from the hall and sat alone in the courtyard to pour himself a drink, waiting for everyone to arrive.
In this temporary meeting, Cai Qian was not present, Yang Kai had to solve a few things, without affecting their Daqing time, the first to count the part of the loot that should be distributed to them, this work was mainly responsible for Cao Mang.
This will be directly related to their combat effectiveness after entering Henan, so they must be meticulous and clear.
The second is the recruitment matter, the conscription order outside the court was hung out for a day, except for some brave and scoundrels instigated by Chen Yuzhu, there were very few people who came to the door, and there were old brothers who put forward opinions, like Wei Qianfu, forced men to join the army, and women were retinues, responsible for daily care.
Han Bin disagreed: "People who don't have the same heart can't form a unified opinion on the battlefield, and the peasant army is weak compared to the same regular army of the Ming court, and the different minds can't fight at all!" ”
However, it was also a problem that no one had come to apply, Yang Kai thought about it, and thought that it would be better to learn from the other business to set up a pillar for them to see? It just so happened that after he helped break the city, he didn't give him any additional reward, called Chen Yuzhu, and said:
"Yesterday's city was broken thanks to your suggestions and timely information, and you can be regarded as a person who can do things, but then he was busy, and the reward for holding the plate was not divided until the second half of the night, and it was not yet time to reward you." Called Han Bin, "Take one hundred taels of silver, reward." ”
Chen Yuzhu was overjoyed when he heard this, as a fifth married man, it was naturally difficult for him to be respected on weekdays, Yang Kai's reward, whether it was false or sincere, was rewarded in the weakest position in his heart after all.
He knelt down: "The family knows me, and Chen Yuzhu will be the head of the house in the future." After saying that, he kowtowed again, and only after Han Bin coughed lightly twice did he react to pick up the silver.
Yang Kai smiled and asked, "Do you know why the residents of the city don't dare to come and wait for us?" ”
"The little one doesn't know, but there is one person who should know. Among the big and small officials who were locked up with the plates, the one who did not kneel in front of the hall held the plates. ”
Chen Yuzhu began to explain endlessly: "That person's name is Shang Yan, he is a county magistrate in the city of Shangnan, and he is very familiar with all the big and small things in the city, and most of the orders of the county magistrate are carried out by him on his behalf. The little one happens to have a little friendship with him. ”
The perennial life has made him good at observing words and feelings, and he can control what to say and to what extent.
Throughout the day, he also heard a lot of news about the team from everyone's mouths and ears, and also knew what happened to the meeting he did not participate in after entering the city.
Yang Kai was quite surprised when he heard this, and then asked, "This person is willing to do things for us thieves?" ”
"Xiao Yuan Yi accompanied the master to ask, and tried his best to persuade him to turn back."
Yang Kai heard him say this, "That's great, if we can really solve the problem of conscription, then I will arrange a hundred households for each of you, and the training will be handed over to you under your command." ”
"Thank you for being in charge, the family is kind and the little one will die as a reward!" Chen Yuzhu kowtowed again.
After Yang Kai said a few more shabby words to him, he ordered him to retreat first. If he really has the ability to persuade people to surrender, it is not impossible to give him the name of a hundred households.
Even if his combat power is not high, participating in the battle at the front can allow him to understand the real situation of the team, and if he is really capable, it is not a problem to transfer him to the deputy master of managing logistics and giving advice after the team is expanded.
He doesn't have to worry about the old brothers being unconvinced, most of the old brothers are arranged under Han Bin, Cao Mang, Zhao Hu and his own subordinates, as long as they admire their direct bosses, they will not make trouble.
Since they bear the name of thieves, it is not easy to recruit talented and virtuous people, perhaps in this troubled world, learn from Cao Cao's set, only seek talent, virtue is behind, this kind of employment system is the best policy.
After the conscription of generals, it is a reward for soldiers.
In the battle of breaking the city, more than 60 people were seriously injured and killed in battle. The wounded are treated with medical treatment, the reward is thickened, the dead are buried thickly, the participants are divided into fifty taels, and the reward for the palm of the plate is for the palm of the plate, and he wants to let the brothers below know that he will not be stingy with his subordinates.
After the completion of the three things, he instructed all departments to pay attention to patrolling outside the city, and to send rangers and patrols in turn on the days of Daqing, so as to avoid officials and soldiers quietly approaching, and those who need to make up for clothes, armor and horse harnesses must seize the time and be ready to retreat at any time as soon as possible.
At the end of the meeting, everyone dispersed, and Yang Kai called Chen Yuzhu and ordered him to go straight to the direction of the county office.
During this time, Gao Yingen was playing in the room, and he didn't have time to understand these things, and when he heard the request made by his subordinates to report to Yang Kai, he just wanted to see a few people and take one or two people away.
More than a dozen officials, big and small, grabbed a few, and the remaining few were all stuffed in the firewood room, Gao Yingen's personal soldiers raised torches to open the door and retreated, Chen Yuzhu hurriedly stepped forward to take them out, led them back to the courtyard where Yang Kai was, and greeted:
"Lord Shang, come with me to meet the master."
Discussing being led into the courtyard by Lord Chen Yu, he was still like a hallman, not panicking, just looking at Lord Chen Yu and scolding:
"I knew that you would be complicit in this thief, and this official should not have given you a way out of the city in the first place, which is extremely hateful."
Yang Kai was tepid and angry, stopped Chen Yuzhu from speaking, and did not mention the matter of conscription, and said:
"Mr. is also a smart person, you should know that if you join for a long time, you will be divided, and if you divide for a long time, today, driven by the general trend, the change of dynasty is a foregone conclusion. The so-called good birds choose wood, good ministers choose the master, you and I are both Han people, Mr. voted for me today, supported Huayi, and then continued the luck of the Han Dynasty, is it better than guarding such a small place, and then joining the Qing army in the future? ”
Discussion sneered: "Yellow-haired child, what ability can you claim to be the master?" It is even more ridiculous to talk about Huayi's argument in vain, if it weren't for the thieves and other thieves, my Ming Court would be majestic and strong, even if he was a thief and knocked on the mountain with iron hooves, what was he afraid of? ”
"Why are we making trouble? Mr. has read the articles of the sage and knows the affairs of the world, and he should know that natural disasters are rampant in my Shaanxi and Henan, and the three taxes of the imperial court are corrupt, why don't you levy him if you are rich in the south of the Yangtze River, in the end, you literati and gentry cover from it, are the rich people people, and the poor people are not people? We are the foundation of thieves and thieves, and we are disobedient to fate. Why isn't he a thief? Stealing the lives of the people, letting the eunuchs be nepotistic, and burying the Han family, this is a lone husband and a thief!
In the future, when the Iron Hoof of the Eight Banners Army breaks through the capital and goes south, you and other seemingly iron-clad Wenchen scholars will now be benevolent, righteous and moral, and in front of the butcher's knife, their original form will be revealed. When you have to learn from the courtiers of the Yuan Dynasty, you have to learn the same set. If the Jurchens are willing to rule the country with the law of the Han people, how should you punish such an act if you support their regime, defend yourself with Huayi arguments and orthodoxy, and kneel down to slavery in disregard of race and the hatred of the country under the iron heel of the enemy? It's for traitors!
Yang Kai is not talented, and the defeat of the remnants of the army will destroy your small city in Shangnan, without much effort. Only said: The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband. He pointed to the flag fluttering outside the backyard wall, "Under this flag, there are thieves who want to survive, and people who are determined to hide." The subordinates of our army, in the name of the uprising of Han Gaozu, won the battle, the Tartars fed the knife, the defeat was defeated, and the iron hooves trampled the corpse. Why not be strong? ”
Hearing this, his eyelids and heart jumped, and he repeated the words "The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband" in his heart. Even if he didn't understand why Yang Kai was so sure that the Tartars would definitely break through the capital and go south, this comment on the three thieves in the world was really good, emphasizing the fairness of their thieves and the Ming royal family fighting for the world, and put forward the slogan of the rise and fall of the nation and the expulsion of the Tartars.
He is not a stubborn person, otherwise it would be impossible to make friends with people like Chen Yuzhu, in fact, yesterday under the court, he saw Yang Kai's thoughts, and wanted to give Zhixian a step down, but unfortunately the latter did not appreciate it. I was about to test him a few words, but unfortunately I was dragged away and had no chance.
Now that he sees that Chen Yuzhu is alive and well, and it seems that he has been reused, he thinks that he is thousands of times stronger than these five marrymen, why can't he live?
This time as an interviewer, Yang Kai did intend to recruit talents, and in various aspects, he didn't seem to struggle anymore after making excuses: "What are you looking for me this time?" He changed the word "official" to "I."
Chen Yuzhu was overjoyed when he heard this, and then he remembered that he didn't seem to have done anything, looking at Yang Kai and nodding, he remembered in his heart that what Mr. Private School said when he named him seemed to have really come true, thinking about himself as a five-married husband, but he never imagined that he could have this status today.
In the star-studded sky, the moon is like a practice, and the Fushan is spread out, scattering a few pieces of the courtyard, and it is vaguely visible that the window of the room on the east side of the courtyard has gently opened a gap. There was a big round eye hidden in the gap, and the woman behind the window was discolored.
She bit her lower lip tightly, what she originally thought in her heart was nothing more than how to escape, but now she has a more innocent idea, this thief seems to have heard differently, will she let him go?
ps: Starting tomorrow, try to make two changes, and I hope that the brothers will help to catch up with the reading, add tickets, and spend the new book period, love you!
